The African elephant used its tusks, 10-ton weight and 13ft height to smash an African rock python, colossal squid and saltwater crocodile.
It then triumphed over the undefeated Siberian tiger in the final, potentially putting to bed many a pub argument.
US wildlife biologist Dr Arjun Dheer was unsurprised.
He said: “The elephant’s huge size, combined with its strength and intelligence, has long placed it at the top of the animal kingdom.”
The croc, described as “an aquatic behemoth” came third.
The hippo, with a “deceptively powerful bite”, was a surprise fourth in the scraps arranged by Animal Match-up.
It said: “We created an arena where these magnificent creatures clashed in the closest approximation to real-world scenarios.”
